"Okay, okay, I said," Zhou Huai'an saw that Lin Ran was really a little impatient, so he put away his playful thoughts, "Back then, Mo Zhi had a very important business cooperation abroad, and the opponent was the person who had recently targeted you, and it started in a hurry, although the cooperation was completed, but the loss was not small, and one of his most trusted assistants also stabbed him at the most critical time because of the temptation on the other side, and ...... Although it was kind of ruining that person's business plan, it's a pity-"

"The leader ran away," Lin Ran took it calmly, and then was a little puzzled, "It stands to reason that it shouldn't be, judging from my understanding of Mo Zhi, he won't act without complete preparation?" ”

"Because except for the assistant who defected, there was a ghost in his team from the beginning." Zhou Huai'an said.

Lin Ran understood.

Just when she wanted to say something more, Zhou Huai'an's phone suddenly rang, he picked it up and listened to a few words, and his face changed: "Okay, I know." ”

Then he turned to Lin Ran, and said with some hesitation: "A person I set up to let him in, a bit like Wu Ziping, I don't know how to know that I am in Yancheng now, can you cooperate with me?" ”

Lin Ran was a little surprised by his reaction: "Okay, it's nothing. ”

"Fortunately, you are young, and you can still talk about high school, but you have to promise me that you won't care about anything when you see someone next time." Zhou Huai'an said it with difficulty.

"Who's coming?" Lin Ran also heard that something was wrong.

"Feng Dezhao."

Lin Ran was stunned.

How could it be him?!

How could it be him?!

Lin Ran, who was extremely shocked, didn't even pay attention to where Zhou Huai'an was taking her all the way, and got out of the car behind Zhou Huai'an, and even when she got out of the car, Zhou Huai'an didn't hear her clearly.

The person who inherited her father's kindness, but in the years that followed, played a trick behind his back and made Qiao Jingyi successful, how could he ...... And the face back to Yancheng?!

Although Zhou Huai'an repeatedly reassured her, saying that he wouldn't know who she was, and she didn't believe Zhou Huai'an, she really couldn't let go of this heart.

Until she saw this person who had been absent for many years-

Lin Ran's eyes widened the moment she got out of the elevator, and she almost couldn't believe that this shriveled middle-aged man in a light gray tunic and thin bones was the high-spirited person back then, and she finally understood what Zhou Huai'an asked her to put in the heart - this person's eyes were no longer useful.

Someone bent down and whispered something in Feng Dezhao's ear, a smile appeared on his face, he stood up with his cane, and smiled in the direction where the footsteps came: "Mr. Zhou, I haven't seen you for many years." ”

The fierceness in the bones in the early years seems to have disappeared at all, and under the shriveled body, this man even has a certain elegance and restraint. Lin Ran rarely looked at this person who shook hands with Zhou Huai'an and greeted him with a peaceful smile, and then suddenly realized that what happened back then was a long, long time ago......

Zhou Huai'an's expression was still obscured under the huge black sunglasses, connecting all his emotions. chatted with Feng Dezhao without being salty, and then pushed out Lin Ran, who was standing silently on the side: "I don't mean anything else, a child left by a relative's accident a few years ago was not very good in the high school entrance examination, and she will take the college entrance examination this year, so she will move her household registration to Yancheng, so I want to lower the threshold for her." It's been half a year since I've been here, so I'm not at ease, so I'm going to see her. ”

Zhou Huai'an pulled Lin Ran: "It's called Uncle Feng." ”

Lin Ran's eyebrows jumped, and she estimated in her heart how likely it was that Zhou Huai'an took the opportunity to fix her, and paused for a while before suppressing her voice and calling out vaguely: "Uncle Feng." ”

Feng Dezhao nodded in her direction: "Uncle Feng lives in Xicheng, go back and copy the address and phone number to you, if you have something, just say, your Uncle Feng has also lived in Yancheng for so many years, I can't say how much ability I have, but after all, I am familiar with the road, and I am an old friend of your uncle, don't be polite to me." ”

Lin Ran answered vaguely and stopped talking.

Zhou Huai'an patted her on the shoulder: "This little girl has never seen the world, she is bored, Mr. Feng, don't be like her." ”

Feng Dezhao shook his head very respectfully: "Child...... Why not send it abroad? Wouldn't it be easier to take the test? ”

"This stubborn girl is not happy, she has to take the exam by herself," Zhou Huai'an smiled, he has perfected the technique of talking about people and talking nonsense, "Besides, we can't earn the money of the bastard and send it back to the bastard, right?" ”

Feng Dezhao made him amused rarely: "Zhou Huai'an, Zhou Huai'an...... After all these years, you're really ......" His voice grew lower and lower, and at the end it was almost a whisper, "It hasn't changed at all......"

He hummed a few syllables from his throat, but others couldn't hear it clearly, after speaking, he shook his head, groped and slowly stood up, a middle-aged man next to him immediately came over to support him, Feng Dezhao tapped the floor a few times with his cane: "Since this is the case, I won't disturb your relatives to get together, if there is anything in Yancheng in the future, just call me ......" He was about to leave, and suddenly remembered something, turned his head and smiled in the direction of Lin Ran, "Uncle Feng is a little older, a little confused, and forgot to ask what his niece is called?" ”

Zhou Huai'an showed a strange smile on his face: "This child is a little traumatic, I am afraid that she will not be able to stand it when she remembers the past, so I decided to give her a new name...... Speaking of which, I borrowed a friend's name and started a new one. ”

Feng Dezhao's footsteps paused: "Oh? Which of your friends is the most powerful? ”

"This ...... Speaking of which, you are also familiar with it," Zhou Huai'an played with a lighter in his hand, and said word by word, "The name I gave this girl is Huaiming." ”

Lin Ran paused to breathe suddenly, Feng Dezhao's face turned white in an instant, the fingers holding the cane trembled uncontrollably, the muscles on the cheeks tightened, and the empty eyes stared straight in the direction of Lin Ran and Zhou Huai'an.

It was quiet for a while, only the sound of Zhou Huai'an's lighter opening and closing, and after a while, Feng Dezhao took a deep breath and squeezed out an ugly smile on his shriveled face: "It's a good name." ”

After saying that, he walked away without looking back.

Lin Ran raised his hand and rubbed his temples after he couldn't see Feng Dezhao's figure at all: "Mr. Zhou, you just want to take revenge on me today, right?" ”

"I said Ranran, if I had the ability to know that Feng Dezhao came to me today," Zhou Huai'an smiled bitterly, "Do I still need to find you to cooperate from the beginning?" ”

Zhou Huai'an came to Lin Ran, in fact, it was not only this news for her, but he needed Lin Ran to go back with him to a small city where her mother took her to run away from home, and Zhou Huai'an had also been to that city, specifically for what Zhou Huai'an couldn't tell her, but Lin Ran guessed that it was mostly related to Wu Ziping.

Lin Ran has now completely understood that Wu Ziping is really at the end of the road, not only Zhou Huai'an, but also Mo Zhi is staring at him, not to mention ......

She sighed, she didn't know what she wanted him to do.

explained to Mo Zhi at night - of course, Lin Ran didn't tell him what he was going to do, just said that it was a bit of a matter to go back to the place where his mother had stayed, but obviously, Zhou Huai'an wanted to take her away, and he must have greeted Mo Zhi in advance - and then called Fang Shanshan again, saying that the meeting with her would be delayed for a while, so he hurriedly packed his things and set off with Zhou Huai'an the next morning.

From Yancheng to the small city Zhou Huai'an said, it takes about four hours by train. Coming out of the small station that didn't even have a square, Lin Ran felt as if he had traveled back in time and space, back to twenty or thirty years ago. Taxis and rickshaws were parked in a mess at the door, and when they saw a new wave of passengers getting out of the bus, they rushed over and solicited customers.

The two of them put their luggage in a hotel near the train station, got into a taxi, and Zhou Huai'an reported the name of the place. Lin Ran noticed that at that moment, the man's face showed a look mixed with reminiscence and nostalgia, although it flashed. The driver seemed to look at him suspiciously, and muttered in a low voice: "It's so biased......"

The location is indeed very remote, and the taxi takes them away from the town, the road is bumpy, the houses on both sides are getting lower and lower, and finally it even turns into a large wheat field. Zhou Huai'an seemed to deliberately avoid people, and asked the driver to stop when he was far away.
